Swindled

A school teacher lost her life savings in a business scheme that had been elaborately explained by a swindler. When her investment disappeared and her dream was shattered, she went to the Better Business Bureau. “Why on earth didnt you come to us first?” the official asked. “Didnt you know about the Better Business Bureau?”

“Oh, yes,” said the lady sadly. “Ive always known about you. But I didnt come because I was afraid youd tell me not to do it.”

The folly of human nature is that even though we know where the answers lieGods Wordwe dont turn there for fear of what it will say.
